Haha me too. I think he ment the porcilen was white.

sorry i meant the porcelain bit is white, wasnt sure if u could get different colours .
the tip where it sparks is like a charcoal black colour. too much fuel? but then why would it seize wouldnt it just be lacking power?

im going to order a new piston for it, the 1 in there is size 50.04, iv cleaned the bore and got rid of the score marks, i dont think iv taken much off because the score marks werent really deep. should i get the next size up or stick with the same size piston?

il order a cht guage at the same time, what sort of temp should it be running at, and what sort of temp should it not reach?
also could u recommend a good oil to use? i thought castrol would be good enough.

im confused with all the different plug types and fuel mixes. different people seem to be tellin me differnt oil/fuel mixes.
which mix would be best to use and with which plug?

sorry for all the questions im still learning.

thanx

i thought castrol would be good enough.

Some cooler running engines call for TCW3 (Two Cycle Water cooled 3rd generation) and has the potential to seize up a hotter running engine.
There are oils that carry a JASO rating and may be better suited to your needs.
Owners manual states what oil to use.
Trial and error is going to get real expensive real fast.
Castrol makes good oil but is likely the wrong oil.
